auditor finds truck tipped over
records said truck and question driver
makes assumptions, staff members get annoyed
recovery team divert cars police just watch on
I think its annoying as hell, but its legal and we need to just get on with it however if someone had a accident such a scumbg move to just start recording lol and your not even involved.
How can it be legal. Jo public filming interviewing people . Police should step.in and stop.
I was always told in event of an accident never apologise or admitt responsibility.
As once you admitt it you can be blamed even if wasn’t at fault.
You say something to the fella filming out of.context as it’s on camera your basically stuffed.
And sure there was a law passed about year ago making it illegal to film a car crash as you drive past? same should be applied here
Unfortunately if your in a public space theres nothing to stop you taking pictures of anything you can see .
I would assume that also applies to video so it would appear the person behind the phone / video camera isn’t breaking the law . Whether such a low life needs to be entertained is a totaly different question . Theres absolutely no need to get involved , no need to speak , look at them or acknowledge they exist. This is nothing more than ambulance chasing and should be treated with the contempt it deserves .

That only applies to the driver, nothing illegal about their passengers filming the aftermath.
No he isn’t. He’s a self appointed prick who makes videos to put on Youtube. He doesn’t work for anyone, he has no official powers. In the one I saw recently where he was doing a prison he was lucky not to get arrested under the Counter Terrorism Act as he was going round filming every single registration plate in the staff car park. He was clearly amazed when he and two others walking around the perimeter wall when he was confronted by three prison guards, a dog and a police officer. The moron said he’d not seen any signs saying it wasn’t allowed but he’d videod them stuck to poles and lamp posts pretty much every third one as he walked around and in the shot where he was talking to the police officer there was one further down the path.

No he doesn’t. He manages to come across as in an authoritative manner which gives him the impression that he knows what he’s on about but he doesn’t and those who think he does clearly don’t know much about it either. The one he did at the prison is a prime example. Not only that when challenged by the police he comes across all “freeman of the land”. It’s cringeworthy.

I believe that is the current state of play.
But I reckon that those ghouls who get kicks from filming the real life misery of others should have laws against them.
There is an argument for allowing filming unless there is a sound reason not to, and I think that filming real injured people should be illegal whether it is for public viewing or for the private jollies of an individual.
Creepy in the extreme.
Adding:
The first video is of a creep sticking his camera under the nose of someone recently involved in a RTA.
Probably very stressed and upset, with lots of adrenaline flowing.
Doesnt matter who is or isnt at fault, the knobhead with the camera is seeking to make money from the bad experiences of others, and is lucky that his camera wasnt inserted without benefit of vaseline where it really belongs. His attitude is to try to provoke reaction, then come over all innocent when he gets a reaction. Hed probably like to get thumped so that he can get even more views.
His problem is that of his agenda at any cost with scant regard for anyone else, their situation, feelings or implications that may result from his intrusion into their lives, for this alone he needs placing into the back of the mixer once righted and taken to the final destination, hopefully a new road building project where he would never be seen again.
I shot down my neighbours drone with a catapult. I politely told him not in my backyard. I just too a ball bearing and blasted it in my garden. I handed him his wreckage. This bloke thinks he is hard one day he will meet his match
